Snow!!!!

17's for the winter 18's for the summer.one of the 18's is curbed as well, but i didn't do it. i'm debating whether or nto to get it resurfaced from the dealer or just get new rims. nice rims that fit and aren't expensive as hell are hard to find. and i don't want to have 3k rims in ny, cause they'll get bent eventually.

If you went forged you could probably be fine in the long term. I had Centerline's on my 850 and even rolling around on 215/45 tires they survived A-OK. Less weight too.

Not many of the Volvo guys seem to dig aftermarket wheels but the OE wheels always seem too soft and too heavy, not to mention they aren't cheap either.
 
they're plenty strong, as demonstrated by the pothole...but the 18's are WAY to heavy. just switching form summer to winter wheels produced a very noticeable difference in performance.
